About: I am a 32-year-old living in a house in Wenham (with a large backyard!) with flexible work hours. I work from home, and I'm a writer so hours are flexible, so I can take your dog for a walk whenever you need me to. I am responsible, kind, and athletic, and would love taking your dog on a long neighborhood walk, a dog park, or another location you'd prefer. I’ve been a Rover sitter for over five years, and have watched all kinds of pups! Young or old, big or small, energetic and outgoing or shy and timid… I’ve watched (and loved) them all! Being a Rover sitter is truly one of my biggest joys. As someone who loves dogs but doesn’t have one yet myself, I will truly treat your pup like my own and make sure he or she has a fantastic time away :) I am a previous pet owner myself -- growing up I had an incredibly energetic golden retriever dog, as well as a cat who lived 15 years. I also used to volunteer at the Ipswich Animal Shelter because I love all animals! I work a 9-to-5 job from home, but my role as a writer means I have limited meetings — so I have a lot of flexibility to take your pup for walks and play with him or her throughout the day. I follow the owner’s advice when it comes to how to make the animal feel safe and comfortable in my home. I ensure I am always aware of where the pup or cat is and watch them so they don’t get themselves into harm’s way, and I follow the animal’s lead when it comes to whether they want to be picked up or pet or whether they want space to explore a bit. I work full-time from home, and as a writer I have a flexible schedule to play and walk your pet throughout the day as well as on weekends. We have a house in Wenham, and I always ensure anything potentially dangerous is off the floor before a pup comes over. I also make sure they have their own space in my house on a dog bed or blanket with toys so they feel safe and welcomed.
“I reached out to Hannah 24 hours before needing a dog walk and she stopped by to meet my dog Luna the day of. She was great with Luna and was timely and communicative on the day of the way. We will 100% use Hannah’s services again!”


About: I’ve had dogs since young and I’ve loved to train them and work with them. I also really enjoy talking dogs for walks because it is super peaceful and fun. I am currently a college student who is already active. I go for runs at least 3 times a week and can incorporate more walks into my routine. I will abide by the clients rules and how they walk their animal. I also will try to create a bond with the pet so they want to go with me or allow me in their home.
“Danielle took such great care of our dogs while we were away! She was very communicative, sent updates during every walk, and we received plenty of pictures. Thank you so much Danielle!”

About: I grew up with dogs and have almost always had one as an adult. I’m comfortable with all breed big and small and have trained many dogs, including stubborn pitties and enthusiastic goldens. I just adopted my foster pup Remy who is the best girl. I love dogs and will treat yours like they’re mine. I can’t wait to meet your pup and go for a frolic! I currently am unemployed and filling my days with walking pups and volunteering. My schedule if pretty flexible. I’m on a pretty standard schedule for wake up and walks. I live in a 2nd floor apartment of a 2 family, so I can’t take dogs out there for a quick pee. I go for 2-3 walks a day with my pup. I’m adaptable for your pups schedule when sitting.
“Catherine has been great with our 2 black labs the last couple of months. They get excited every time she comes to the door, because they know they're going for a nice walk. We are scheduled for 3 walks a week but with the holidays, snow days,and work from home days the schedule has fluctuated drastically. Catherine has been very accommodating. I highly recommend her services.”

“Sharon was amazing! She came over before we needed help with Fitz to meet him, and he loved her at first sight. She was communicative, quick to respond, and timely. I highly recommend!”

About: My name is Betina, and I live in North Andover, MA—a community I truly love and proudly advocate for. Although I grew up in South Florida, my passion for animals has followed me everywhere. I even used Rover back then, and I still believe it’s a wonderful way to connect caring pet parents with trustworthy caregivers. My love for animals began in childhood. I used to knock on neighbors’ doors asking if they needed their dogs walked or washed. Growing up, I shared my home with cats, reptiles, rodents, and fish—and I still have fish today. I truly adore them. I attended a zookeeping camp where I helped care for and train elephants, and I spent my summers at Circle F Dude Ranch, where I proudly served as the rodeo drill team captain. Animals have always been my calling. One of my favorite childhood memories is inviting all the neighborhood cats over for my cat’s birthday party. As an adult, I’ve built extensive professional experience in animal care. I’ve worked in pet stores, volunteered at animal shelters, and been part of doggy daycare teams. I proudly graduated from Merryfield School of Pet Grooming and continue to expand my knowledge through online education and attending AKC dog shows. I worked at Petco for 10 years, gaining hands-on experience with a wide range of animals and pet needs. I also took full responsibility for my mother’s dog, Jackson, who was diabetic, blind, deaf, and struggled with high anxiety. I administered insulin injections twice daily and managed his long-term trazodone medication with care and dedication. One of my own dogs, Bandit, suffered from chronic ear infections, which required daily treatment. I’ve also lovingly nursed newborn puppies until they were healthy and ready for adoption—and yes, I still have the pictures. They were absolutely adorable. I am CPR certified and hold animal safety certifications. Caring for animals isn’t just what I do—it’s who I am, and it’s been at the heart of my life for as long as I can remember. This is my business . I have open, flexible availability because caring for pets is my full-time career. As a business owner, my focus is entirely on your pets’ needs. This is not a hobby or a temporary job—it’s what I do professionally. With experience, education, and genuine passion, I aim to be every pet’s favorite person when you’re away. I’m passionate about pet sitting and grooming in home to make the pets comfortable and happy. In home pet sitting and grooming also eliminates the hassle of transporting pets , no more wasting gas, no more car sick pets, no more struggling in and out of the car. No more leaving your pet in a strange place and In a kennel all day. Another advantage of in home pet sitting and grooming is you know your pet will be in a clean safe environment. No dog fights or over crowded environments. Best of all your pet will feel secure in their own home. That’s why I come to you and become part of your pets family. Your pets and I will have lots of time to bond. I take the necessary time to get to know your pet and their routine. I give them my whole undivided individual attention with my whole heart. So your pet gets the care and love your pet deserves.

Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
